A study by Roth Capital partners from installers of residential solar and energy storage has unveiled a clear market shift from the leading battery provider in some parts of the United States. April 1, 2025 Ryan Kennedy Image: PV Magazine, Jonathan Gifford By ESS News The Tesla shares fell nearly 50% in December compared to its highest time and the Na-American election result colourse in value it had enjoyed. Political tensions with regard to the actions of Tesla Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk as leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) have led to widespread protests and even vandalism…
Scientists in Australia have shown how pre-cooling and preheating in Australian buildings can be implemented with the support of surplus solar energy. Their analysis has shown that summer has the highest potential for reducing air conditioning. April 1, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Researchers from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia have investigated how excess solar energy from PV installations on the roof can be used for pre-cooling and pre-heating (SPCAH) for solar energy in residential buildings. “SPCAH helps to reduce the later demand for air conditioning or heating, making our energy consumption more efficient,” said the author of…
Federal solar incentives are in the hands of the Ways and Means Committee, while they debate about the federal budget. Trump rates on trading partners go through BoomerangWashington, DC The Trump government has been threatening back and forth since February due to new 25% rates for goods from Canada and Mexico. After the rates came into force at the beginning of March, President Trump paused them in accordance with the United States-Mexico-Canada agreement (USMCA) until 2 April, according to Yahoo Finance. 21 House Republicans Stem support for IRA as budget reasons startWashington, DC While the Committee of the House Ways…
Every time you stream a video, send an email, or scroll through social media, you’re triggering a complex chain of energy-intensive processes that most of us never see. Behind the seamless digital experiences we take for granted lies a massive, often invisible environmental challenge: the internet’s growing carbon footprint. Data centers are the backbone of our digital world, powering everything from streaming services and cloud storage to remote work platforms and IoT devices. As our reliance on digital infrastructure grows, so does the energy consumption of these mission-critical facilities. Currently, data centers consume approximately 400 terawatt-hours (TWh) globally, accounting for…
Battery tree Drives Bangladesh Lead poisoning epidemic Bangladeshi Junayed Akter is 12 years old, but the poisonous lead that flows through his veins has left him the shrinking status of someone a few years younger. Akter is one of the 35 million children – about 60 percent of all children in the South Asian nation – who have dangerously high levels of lead exposure. The causes are varied, but his mother blames his ailments for a factory that has since cunted and hastily demolished and recycled old vehicle batteries for profit, in the process that poisons the air and the…

The CNY 10 billion investment values Yongxiang on CNY 27 billion before the capital increase. The new investors will acquire up to 27.03% of Yongxiang, whereby the revenues are mainly focused on reimbursing debts…
The fleet of energy storage projects in Europe, including pumped hydro and battery energy storage systems of all shapes and sizes, is rapidly expanding. This growth will continue at a strong pace until 2030, fed by technological progress, supporting policy and other important factors. April 1, 2025 Mariha Maisch Image: European Association for Storage of Energy By ESS News Europe continues to grow its energy storage fleet in pace and promotes its transition to a more sustainable and resilient energy system. According to a new report written by LCP Delta and the European Association for Storage of Energy (convenience), the…
The Chinese battery maker has launched its next generation of lithium iron phosphate cell that can be integrated with both 1500 V and 2,000 V platforms. It is planning to determine the mass production on 30 June with an annual classification of production capacity of more than 80 GWh. April 1, 2025 Mariha Maisch By ESS News On March 28, Cornen, a lithium battery maker with head office in the province of Hubei, unveiled his fourth generation of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) energy storage cell with a capacity of 472 AH. Measuring the cell of 74 mm × 220 mm…
By contributing author March 31, 2025 Carports are just logical. Of the 21.4 GWs Zonne -Zon to date, according to Wood Mackenzie, between 10% and 15% are built on top of carports. The demand for this efficient use of space continues to rise – generate clean energy while shielding cars against the elements. A 2012 study from the US Geological Survey shows that parking spaces cover almost half a percent of the total land surface of America-accident 13,778 square miles. If we were to add PV on top of that entire area, the US would enjoy nearly 500 GW extra…
Solar landscape has confirmed 14 new community projects in Maryland, for a total capacity of 6.6 MW. The new installations are the first of the 57 projects of Solar Landscape in Maryland, all organized on commercial roofs, so that it has been developed the largest group of community projects developed by a single company in Maryland. Once surprised, they will offer 55 MW collectiveDC From solar capacity. “Community Solar Projects such as we have ratified, create jobs, reduce energy costs and help Maryland help with its energy needs,” said Solar Landscape CEO and co-founder Shaun Keegan. “Placing large solar installations…
